Code:

$ lsmod | grep -i blue
bluetooth             228619  23 bnep,hidp,btusb,rfcomm

Here are some interesting events:

I installed KDE and GNOME desktops to see if I could get different results. So far I have tested KDE but it was exactly the same. When I switched back to Cinnamon the Gtk widgets were messed up. So I renamed my ~/.config directory and restarted. That fixed the widgets. But also I was able to successfully connect to my phone and transfer files. I thought maybe it was fixed so I tried connecting the mouse. It still didn't work and system crashed again. When I restarted I couldn't connect to my phone anymore. So I renamed ~/.config again and restarted. Again I could connect to the phone and transfer files, however the kernel eventually panicked. So it appears that the kernel will inevitably panic when connected to a bluetooth device.
